The partitioner has a means to detect packages needed for a specific host and during the installation, it selects them for installation.

Seems that the bootloader module (and any other module heavily depending on partitioner) should - on start - get the list of pacakges detected and check and install them if missing.

See how that is done by AutoYaST here:

https://github.com/yast/yast-autoinstallation/blob/ 75af746a955be0d755e645da41061715329bcd7a/src/modules/AutoinstSoftware.rb#L842

Or by the installation process itself here: https://github.com/yast/yast-storage-ng/blob/ a0cb655eed01b5c7004e2fffa3dacb1d8ea51f0f/src/lib/y2storage/clients/ inst_disk_proposal.rb#L154

Maybe yast2-bootloader can also use the Y2Storage::PackageHandler to get the list of packages and then offer the installation of those packages to the user in order to continue.

I worry that this is not so easy, as there are also packages that uses bootloader API like yast2-vm or yast2-kdump and they also need to install respective packages. I worry that we never have this requirement and ideally we need to come with consistent API that can be used across modules like if you require given module/class it will automatic add its package requirement to some module ( Packager one ideally ) and then target module itself adds its own packages and as result everything needed is installed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
